Senior Partner
An architect and interior designer with over 30 years of experience in the design and management of corporate and institutional projects, Guy Geier is Managing Partner of FXFOWLE Architects as well as leader of the firm's Corporate and Interior Design practice. A strong proponent of the value design plays in creating a healthy and productive workplace, Guy focuses on developing spaces that reflect a client’s mission and current program, while anticipating future needs.
Guy's current projects include the conversion of a landmarked Armory in New York City into a 55,000 square foot office for Disney, targeted for LEED Silver. He is also leading the programming, interior planning and design for a new 250,000-square-foot Federal Office Building in San Juan, Puerto Rico to be designed under the GSA Workplace 2020 Guidelines and to attain LEED Silver. He is also overseeing the renovation of the 200,000 square foot Kings County Criminal Court, which is being designed to achieve LEED Silver CI certification. Guy was Partner-in-Charge for the recently completed Rockefeller Brothers Fund's new location on Manhattan's Morningside Heights. FXFOWLE's vision for the Rockefeller Brothers Fund coincides with the organization's commitment to ensure that sustainability is incorporated holistically throughout the entire project. The office achieved LEED Platinum certification from the USGBC.
Guy and his team recently completed a new environmentally responsible LEED Platinum Headquarters Expansion for SAP near Philadelphia. The 210,000-square-foot building integrates with an existing office campus and landscape. Other recent projects include law offices in The New York Times Building for Covington & Burling; corporate offices for Oaktree Capital Management in New York and Stamford, and the Hosfelt Gallery in Manhattan. A new LEED Platinum 28,000-square-foot office for the National Audubon Society incorporates numerous innovative features including under floor air distribution, daylight dimming sensors and controls, recycled and locally produced materials, and an open plan with no full height enclosed offices—all in a former printing house with high ceilings and large operable windows.
Guy received both his Bachelor of Science in Architecture and Masters of Architecture from the University of Virginia, where he is also Chair of the Dean's Advisory Board and a member of The Raven Society.
